490 medical points settled
On December 27, Comrade Lao Liu led leaders of all sizes in the farm, and even Dave and others dressed up for a while and became a member of Hei Chao again.
Just today's attitude is much more enthusiastic and formal than the opening of a flower shed. Because today is the time for Doctors Without Borders to open medical points on site.
This is also a major event in the farm. Although it is just a simple medical point, it is also the most professional medical institution in nearby villages.
"Wow, Clark, you won't send so many people to me at once, are you?" Old Liu was so happy to see Clark leading the people out of the car.
"Simon, I want to arrange so many people for you, but I don't have so many doctors." Clark shrugged.
"The first batch will have Daisy and Elvin here, and will rotate according to our operations in the future. Today I just brought them all over because these people have holidays."
"Clark, are you too stingy? I thought you would need at least three people." Old Liu shook his head.
"There are already a lot of people. You should know that you are a permanent medical center here. However, you need to bear all the supplies personally, and this will not change." Clark said.
"I'm stingy, this is something I've decided long ago. Will it change?" Old Liu gave him a blank look.
They were chatting here, and Xiao Miaomiao rushed towards Daisy happily. This was Daisy's mother, and she hadn't seen her for a long time.
Except for Daisy, the rest of the people came to Lao Liu's farm for the first time, and were also attracted by the animals mixed in the crowd. It was different from what Lao Liu brought over. When did there be another leopard? Why are these elephants so well-behaved?
Although many people here still cannot name their names, some of them are new faces. However, more people are still familiar with each other. No matter which one, Lao Liu expressed a warm welcome.
"Clark, isn't this place good? Someone will send the equipment here later and install and debug it. But they are all simple equipment, and those high-end products are really too expensive." Old Liu said after coming to the medical room here.
"Now I find that those medical equipment are the most expensive, not more expensive. And they also need maintenance during use. Anyway, they just need to spend money, and it's still a lot of money."
"Simon, this is very normal. After all, these devices can detect human conditions that we cannot detect through the naked eye and experience." Clark said with a smile.
"I looked at the list of equipment you purchased, which is already a bit high for the configuration of a medical point. This is really great. Simon, after some time you will find that these investments are not useless. Because they can save people's lives, and life is priceless."
"You, don't have to tell me this. If you have free funds in the future, you will definitely invest additionally." Old Liu said with a smile.
"It's just that there are really too many projects I'll do next year, including hotels, house construction, and investment in Tanzania. All of them need to be spent. I'm squeezed out the money now."
"Simon, don't want to lie to me, your flowers are so expensive. You don't know that my wife likes your blue roses, and you can't buy them at all."
Old Liu shook his head helplessly, "If she were here, I could give her a lot. But I can't do anything about her in your country."
"Let's do it, see when the right time is right, we can give her a surprise. When I ship the goods, just contact the dealer there. How about giving it to her directly?"
"Simon, can this really be done?" Clark asked in surprise.
Old Liu shrugged, "Why not? It's just a little more money, don't worry. Just tell me when I need to deliver it and what words to write, that's fine."
"Haha, Simon, you're so nice." Clark happily gave Lao Liu a big hug.
Old Liu didn't think anything was wrong, but he thought it was a huge face. Nowadays, blue roses are still hard to find even after Christmas. If she gave her wife a surprise on New Year's Day, she would definitely be so happy that she would be crazy.
There is nothing to see here, that is, some conventional things. Only after those equipment are installed will it be of high quality. Otherwise, it will be a small clinic now, and in terms of drug reserves, it is still a small clinic with some shortcomings.
Even so, the configuration of this medical point here is really high in the current situation. After all, the medical skills of these MSF doctors here are much higher than that of many local hospitals in Kenya.
When Lao Liu led Clark out, he saw that these doctors were already crazy. There was a rare time to relax and there were so many animals, so why don’t you have to play happily?
"Okay, don't play anymore. Go to our cafeteria and enjoy a delicious meal." Old Liu clapped his hands and greeted him.
"Simon, what delicious food has been prepared for us?" Daisy asked with a smile.
"There are many, more than ten dishes. They are all the special dishes of the chefs here, and the taste is much better than what I cook." Old Liu said with a smile.
"You are my most honorable guests. We have prepared carefully for your arrival for a long time. Don't be polite to me. Let's enjoy your holiday in the past two days."
These people are really not polite. They cheer when they should, without hiding at all.
In fact, for them, although this is their ideal, the work here is even more tiring and boring, so there are so many relaxation projects. When I come to Lao Liu, it is almost the same as coming to recuperate.
There are quite a few people in this group who know Lao Liu, so they naturally know more about Lao Liu's personality. You really don't have to be polite with Lao Liu, just eat, drink and have fun happily.
Old Liu didn't know that in order to compete for the remaining quota, they even set up a round of lottery draws. Daisy was selected in the first round because she was very familiar with Old Liu and was Miaomiao's godmother.
For many people, Lao Liu's feeling is also very novel. Kenya is not the place they used to live, and people who have been here for a long time have become accustomed to the way Kenya looks. But after coming to this farm, they seem to have entered a new country.
Because the people working here have different spirits. It is very different from the numb eyes I saw in the past.
Following Liu Wenrui into the cafeteria, Wang Zhonghe and Xu Qiang also started to work on the stove. They were all prepared ingredients and cooked on site, so that the taste would be the best.
Of course, those that require time, such as sauces and braised meat, need to be made in advance. There are also some small cold dishes, which are fine.
"Daisy, is your medical skills good?" Old Liu asked with a smile after sitting down.
"Simon, don't look down on others, I'm very powerful, too." Daisy waved her fist.
"That's very good. You and Erwin need to be prepared. After everyone leaves, will I take you to the Kale tribe and check the health of those in the tribe first." Old Liu poured Daisy wine.
"They have never received any medical examination or treatment, and they use their Kale tribe's native methods. So you have to be careful when you go there. I am their chief at least, and I have to be responsible for their health."
"Simon, I really hope to have a chief like you." Daisy said with emotion.
"Although it's just a simple check and some vaccination, it also costs a lot of money. I don't know how long it will take for the two of us to deal with it."
"It doesn't matter, we have a lot of time anyway. Their living conditions were poor before, so their average life expectancy was not very high. I hope our intervention can improve some things." Liu Wenrui said.
"Simon, if this happens, I will arrange four more people for you and form a medical team to go there together." Clark took over the conversation.
"Clark, of course I welcome it if this is the case. Similarly, I will bear all the supplies. But will this not affect your work plan?" Liu Wenrui asked.
"Although there will be some impact, the impact will not be very big. The rest of us have worked harder and can always coordinate well." Clark said with a smile.
"The Kale tribe is just a tribe that exists in our memory. We have been carrying out medical activities here for many years, but we have never been exposed to the Kale tribe."
"It is also a very successful thing for us to be able to carry out medical activities at the Kale people. Not to mention that this event can save us a lot of supplies."
"Clark, there is indeed a problem here now. It is difficult to buy a lot of medical supplies in my existing channels. I wonder if you have your own channels, so how can you purchase more?" Liu Wenrui asked.
"Because the business we are doing is not a profitable business, I also hope to have certain discounts in the purchase price. This will allow you to purchase more materials and help more people."
"Simon, you shouldn't ask me about this. For some ordinary drugs, I think purchasing in your country is the best price." Clark said with a smile.
Lao Liu nodded, "Actually, I have thought so, but if I purchase it personally, there will be a lot of documents. I think it can be easier with your channels."
"Haha, you're just afraid of the cumbersome program. You've prepared all the relevant documents, and then you'll find that it's not that difficult." Clark shrugged.
I am amused Lao Liu. I really think it’s a bit troublesome, so do I have to run the procedures back and forth?
